/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The idea of Armenia-Turkey historic committee
formation can be compared with delayed-action bomb to Protocols,
according to former ambassador at large, ex member of TARC David
Hovhannesyan.
As he noted during Armenia-Turkey expert discussions in Yerevan,
"Creation of this structure will further delay Armenia-Turkey
rapprochement process. Turkey's recognition of Armenian Genocide is
necessary for establishment of bilateral relations."
Ankara's attempts to link Azerbaijan's interests with Armenia-Turkey
normalization process suggest the process to be nothing but imitation,
the expert concluded.
The Protocols aimed at normalization of bilateral ties and opening of
the border between Armenia and Turkey were signed in Zurich by Armenian
Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian and his Turkish counterpart Ahmet
Davutoglu on October 10, 2009, after a series of diplomatic talks
held through Swiss mediation. On January 12, 2010, the Constitutional
Court of the Republic of Armenia found the protocols conformable to
the country's Organic Law.
